Poof.. it certainly isn't worth paying £5.00 to go the allotments, however, she feels sorry for people watching the Cambridge versus Oxford boat race for it is chilly and more than a little damp underfoot.
But the on-line papers say that in London we're due for a wonderful weekend weather wise! What utter rubbish, where do these weather people live?
Never mind.. luckily when Jane and she were out jaunting about on Thursday she bought food and has no reason to have to go out in this dreary weather.
Yes, I know she should go and take exercise but she isn't getting dressed and going out just to get wet and cold.
Mind you.. I got very wet this morning!
It was after we had our eggs, I thought I should have a bath and so launched my fat little body, her words not mine, into my large water bowl.
This bowl sits in a big flat Pyrex aka Corning Ware dish on the side of her bed and no, she's not daft, for underneath it is a very thick towel.
Room temperature water and not too deep, just perfect for standing in one foot at a time whilst I dunked my head, then it was the turn of the other foot and both wings, soon I was as wet as could be and climbed out.. dripping wet!
What fun.. I started towards off towards her on the other side of the bed only to be told "NO, you are not coming to dry yourself off on me, fly off to your cupboard door and drip over there please".
She is such a spoilt sport sometimes!
Goodness me, is that the time? Where does the time go? She has to boil water to soak her bottom eyelid with, she got a sty which may pop any moment, boiled water, allowed to cool a bit and lots of good sea salt, is drawing the poison out.
And at the same time she will chop broccoli and take meat out of chilly white larder.
Sulforphane - which is a wonderful ingredient of the cruciferous family - is in the inactive form of glucoraphanin that belongs to the glucosinolate family of plant compounds.
Sulforphane is activated when glucoraphanin comes into contact with myrosinase, a family of enzymes that play a role in the defense response of plants.
Myrosinase enzymes are released and activated when a plant is damaged. Therefore, broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables (bok choy and cabbage) must be cut, chopped or chewed to release myrosinase and activate sulforphane.
Raw cruciferous vegetables have the highest level of sulforphane, a recent study showed that raw broccoli had ten times more sulforphane than cooked broccoli and if you do cook them, then steaming for only 3 minutes or less is the best way to retain all the healthy stuff.
What a good thing I like my veggies raw!
Now you've today's useful information.. pip pip.. I'm off to yumyum hq.
